Family Therapy
There may be times when a family changes in dynamics or seems to be stuck in a pattern of reacting to one another that is counterproductive. Sometimes children can present with issues that are found to have their roots in family issues, or a family may be affected by a child’s illness or disability, here a combination of individual and family therapy may be useful.
All families have strengths that they can use to overcome their areas of difficulty. The goal of family therapy is to direct the family to finding their own solutions. During the sessions, family members reveal their methods of interaction with one another. This provides rich opportunity to give and receive feedback in a safe and supportive atmosphere. Family members learn new communication skills and identify patterns in former communication styles that served as triggers to escalate family difficulties.
We may explore family roles, values, rules and behavior patterns in order to identify areas that contribute to conflict. Together, we will identify the family’s and the member’s positive attributes and utilize these strengths to work through the problem areas.
